I've got wine up.
I think the 'strike-through upcase letter W' s are a red herring as they don't appear on my system and are probably locale related.
Other than that clicking install just give an egg timer for a few seconds, (which you can do repeatedly), and nothing happens. Same there?
manually creating the install directory doesnt help, though I wouldnt be suprised if this turns out to be an IO related problem.
not sure what the next thing to try is, work on getting a trace of what's going on I think. (this maybe my first serious venture into debugging something on wine, I'll CC the devel list and see if someone can give a newbie some pointers)
will persue it further tomorrow.

Hi Zoltan,
I'll have a go on this one with you. I remember playing TT with my younger brother many moons ago on old serially linked 486s... I just need to get wine up on my new AMD64/FC4 box. Once up I'll have a go at TTD.
the only thing I can say so far is that on Japanese systems a slash is replaced with a strike-though Y (yen) sign. So could this be locale related in some way?
later,

Hi!
I wanted to install Transport Tycoon Deluxe for Windows but the installation does not even start.
I have wine-20050930-1fc3winehq.i686 on my system, FC3/x86-64. The installation directory seems strange on the very first window, every backslash character is painted as a strike-through upcase letter W.
Browsing for another directory or typing the directory manually gives the same problem.
You can download this game among others for testing from http://www.the-underdogs.org/
For the ones who browse Linux gaming sites: Yes, I know about OpenTTD. It requires the files from the _installed_ Transport Tycoon Deluxe.

I believe the strikethrough uppercase W is a korean Won sign. There is an article on one of the microsoft blogs (which I cant get to right now) that explains why the Yen and Won signs have this relationship with the backslash.

In Korean Windows, the won sign is used instead of \ in pathes, and is in the same place on the keyboard as \ should be on an US/en keyboard.

The truth is, I'm on Hungarian locale. The backslash is on RightAlt-q.

I tried to run it as "LANG=en_US wine setup.exe" and "unset LANG ; wine setup.exe" just to be sure. Same problem, so it's not the locale.

Yes, exactly. Sometimes it gives me a messagebox about DirectX couldn't be installed which I cannot quote exactly as I cannot persuade it to give it now.
